Do you know what an adverb phrase is?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Not really...

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Hmm? Okay.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Well do you know what an adverb is?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I know I do...I just can't remember right now.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Hmm... Otey. Well an adverb is for example "I slowly ran to my seat." The word slowly is the adverb becuase it describes the how you ran. Do you follow? I hope I am explaining it correctly.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yes, I get it.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

YAYZ! Otey... So what is the adverb in this sentence?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Not too sure...Eh...Crosses...? lol

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I meant verb. That is the verb. Now what is describing our verb "crosses"?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

route?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Hmmm? No. Guess again.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

bridges?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

No. It is "Along" I believe. Along is describing "how" or "where" they crossed. So the adverb phrase would be "Along its route" I believe.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Thank you.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I hope I was of help. I have to go now. Byezz. :D

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Bye
